So I've been away for like forever, huh? Life. Sometimes it just keeps you so busy you don't have time for some of the funnest stuff around...like What's on your workdesk, Wednesdays! Brought to you by the fabulous and diligent Julia Dunnit over at Stamping Grounds. Here's my desk, as I actually made some stuff this week! And pics of the cards I made too. :)

Smaller cards, requested to be non-occasional so that's why there's no sentiments or anything...

Bigger one that actually inspired those right above it...

Next is just a few clean and simple cards...

Hmmm, sorry the photo's really aren't that great. I got a new computer and haven't found the software for my camera just yet. But I will. Someday...lol Hope you all have a great hop around the desks and if you leave a comment with your number I will be sure to return the visit! :)

So, it's not actually Wednesday anymore but I'ma still link up for the What's on your workdesk Wednesday, hostessed by the oober fab Julia over at Stamping Grounds. This week I have been making something very special for someone amazingly special...I feel privileged to have been able to do this for her and she knows who she is! :) It is not yet complete but these are the pics I got for now for you! Enjoy...:)

That's how the book started...and the beginning of the mess, as well...

This next piece is the spine piece with all the laces and ribbons sewn on...

Rough idea of finished piece, back cover on left...it's really just more mess...

Getting closer to the final product...and I tidied...the buttons! lol

Bonus shot, cause I know you knew there was a giant pile of stuff shoved off to the left! :)

Will finish this and deliver it tomorrow...hope everyone is having a wonderful week and have a great weekend, too! :)

Hey, I made it! :) I do miss getting around to visit all you fabulous crafters out there...if not because of how awesome you are then at least because of how your desks are always almost as messy as mine! :) Why would I go looky or show off my own desk? Simple. 'Cause I can. ;) Thanks to the super wonderful Julia over at Stamping Ground, where you can go find out what this WOYWW thing is all about and see more desks with creative happenings...happening. :) So, here's the pics...

Ya, not much happenin'...getting ready to make at least 4 cards though and do some watercoloring...here is a card I made awhile back...the paper was partially patterned and then I stamped and embossed and diecut the hot air balloon, applied the washi tape and just generally had fun... :)

So, this is a bonus shot of the jewelry area...got lots out a couple months ago (!) and then didn't make snot...except for a big mess! :) Nothing new there, right? lol

For all those who were curious last week, and came over thanks to WOYWW hostessed by the lovely Julia at Stamping Ground, here's what was in the bags! And the paper stack that was sitting on the desk is fanned out for a little better view. Just for your info, because I am NOT sponsored, here are links with store names of where items were purchased; online at Two Peas In a Bucket and Joann's and Oh! My Crafts and in-stores at Hobby Lobby and Michael's and the Dollar Tree.

Too stinkin' cute, right? :)

The whole reason I had to have this particular paper pad...My dear! ;)

Can't wait to make Mother's Day cards, already and how cute are those owls?! :) Sorry if any shots are blurry, I was trying to get as much into each pic as I could so I wouldn't have to upload a bajillion pics, if you know what I mean! Thanks for stopping by to see what my annual splurge netted and hopefully it will inspire you to save up and take the splash too! (No one sponsors me, but seriously, they should, right?! lol) :) Most of these were super deals, like the paper pad discounted almost 70%, and clearance or discontinued items so if you love something, but can't find it, I am sorry about that, but you can still be happy for me, right? :) Hope everyone has a super fab WOYWW! :)

It'll be brief but finally going to make it in! For what? What's on your workdesk Wednesday, all thanks to the super fab Julia over at Stamping Ground. So here's some pics:

Yah, it's a disaster! I'm happy with how that corner is progressing, though. The rest of the mess...well, it was time for my annual splurge. :) I'll have more pics next week, if I make it back of what is in the bags, so stay tuned and thanks for stopping by this week. Have a great one!
